The results were as follow 1) The fracture occure predominantly in male (4 to 1). 2) Among the 9 cases treated with manipulative reduction followed by cast immobilization, 6 showed satisfactory results while the other 3 did not. 3 Among the 13 cases which were treated by coatinuous traction incorporated in cast, 10 showed satisfactory results and 3 did not. 4) Complications observed were; 9 cases of limited supination of affected forearm. 2 cases of ankylosed wrists. 2 cases of pin-tract infections, and 1 case of transient superficial radial nerve palsy.
